I saw a few people in the registry tweak thread that were asking how to keep the phone in landscape mode. I wanted this for my 6700, but never found any combo of settings that stuck. So, I made a little app that gets notified of an orientation change and then forces it back to your preference. It is not a perfect solution, but it will at least let you see if you really do want your phone in landscape all the time.

The app must be launched manually and left to run in the background. Normally, when the phone wakes, it checks the keyboard position and will set the screen orientation state accordingly. This app has to wait for the system to redraw the screen after the phone wakes. It has a slider to let you set how long it will wait for the redraw. If the redraw hasn't finished after that time, the app will retry for up to another 4 seconds before giving up. What that means is, if you have a today screen with lots of complex plugins, you should set the delay slider to the high side, because all that stuff will take longer to redraw.
